Planning to put in HID for my SUV and I need some input.

I just don't want to put in a ballast with HID bulbs. I want to get the optics right too. 2000 RX did not come with stock HID, so i have to retrofit.


The question is how to do it and where to get a pair to get this done.

Thanks.

 

I think a set of ls430 projectors would look sweet because you have the space thats what I got in my gs check out my gallery pics

 

DANG Nice retro man!! Great work did you do it yourself?

 

Thanks I spent 2 weeks on each light to get it perfect and I took some tips from Tiguy99 on how he did it in his thread Mother of all gs retrofits . I got Denso ballast from a 01 ls430 and Phillips85122+ bulbs and I swapped the lense from my old tsx projectors for more sharpness and no I did not do the washer mod because I wanted more performance over color and besides the tsx lense is as clear as a drop of water so I get more color in stock form

 

Wow...can you share how you got the projectors correctly focused. I know you have to open up the housing and then insert the projector, at this time is there any thing special that you need to do; or it's just screw in the projector, seal up the housing and you are good to go.

I went to the the thread where Tiguy99 started a thread giving detailed instruction, but does not get into projector installation.

 

Well what I did to align my lights was once I had the projector mounted in the bowl I mounted it back in the housing without the trim or the lense and the holes I used to mount the projectors were large enough so I could rotate the projector to get the cutoff line straight I had to test fit on my car to get them even once they were even I used jb weld to hold them in position and I tightened up the screws and washers now as far as the gs trim you got to cut the turn signal tube so the projector wont crash against it when you try to adjust your lights and also I had to trim the lower part of the trim where the projector will be so I can adjust up and down

 

Thankd for your input....I have to get a spare set to start playing with it.

 

i've got a few sets of e55 bixenon projectors, and i think i may have a set of rx330's laying around. drop me a PM if you're still looking for a set.
